Answer:

F:53cm by 102cm

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle can be seen as 2l + 2w, with the length being l, and the width being d. If the ratio is 3:2, then 3+2= 5 parts would be the sum of the length and the width, This is half of the perimeter 2(l+w), so 510÷2 = 255. One part would be 255÷5=51.

If you put it into the ratio, effectively it is:

Length:Width

3×51:2×51

153 :102

Therefore the dimensions are 153cm by 102cm, which is F.
